[Q] HELP - Custom ROM Development for Defy - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been learning about Custom ROM development recently and got the kitchen and other tools from both these threads:
@dsixda 's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
@neroyoung 's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661770
But since Defy is not originally supported by the kitchen, there are lot of confusions about the procedure. I tried and failed to boot the ROM that I developed. I was hoping if someone in our forum help me with this and provide me links to learn more of that. It will be a great tutorial for noobs like me who have this one amazing phone.
Thanks in advance.

MoDaCo, there are a forum space for ROM Discussion on i900
Although it seems like this thread belongs in development, it really doesn't. Moving this to general.
Also, try to avoid answering questions that don't really belong in development. Just report the thread, so we mods get a message about the thread being in the wrong forum.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] [Rom Development] What should i Know ?

Hi everyone, i am graduating in T.I here in Brasil.

Sorry if this is at the wrong forum,but i hope i can get some answers before someone closes it
Thanks in advance !

Lol.
Post in general section bro. You don t need extensive C/C++ or Java unless you developing kernel or editing, making new frameworks and apks.

Hm, what exactly makes those custom ROMS faster than the stock ones ?
My bet is that the little ( and lower level , like assembly , C ) tweaks that make them faster.
Am i Wrong ? I really dont know,this is my only shot to be honest
Thanks again !
actually custom roms are nothing else then stock with a litle photoshop, some added/removed apks and repacked. they dont get realy much faster than a stock rom except if they contain a custom kernel, where the full potential of customization lies. with your knowledge you should concentrate on kernel development, there is a thread here describing all needed to get your own kernel up and running, have a look at the fugumod and the g3mod kernel thread to see what goals are already accieved and find your own customizations to make the g3 better. also u could pick up on the graphics driver project posted here somewhere, iirc nobody took the plunge yet to do this, and youd be the hero for many of us if u get it runing...

You really can't expect help whenever you ask for it, and if I knew anything about devving I probably wouldn't help you after that. Anyway, most devs don't pay attention to the Q&A section, so you're not likely to get too much help.

As the title says, I want to cook HD2 ROM since on every ROM I tried something was missing for me, so the solution is: I will develop my own ROM and share it here on XDA if its going well.
But, I don't really know how to start, I'm not a noob but not a developer either.
All I need is to know where to cook ROMs (I have dsixda kitchen and used it b4, but only for MAGLDR to cLK ports and some minor things, tried to cook with it but with no success, the ROM didn't boot, kerenl problem I believe...), I need to know how to start from scratch: grab base from somewhere, add / change kernels, add Aroma instalation etc.
The rest, tweaking ROM for example, I would like to know how, but too soon for now...
So please masters, help me out! :angel:

Google is your friend. Its where i got started when i wanted to develop. So go there Its not going to be easy, but at least you can say YOU did all the work yourself

Well there are guides for dsixda kitchen, you just have to use the HD2 source code for whatever ROM type you want to cook (ie CM9 AOKP CM7 MIUI SENSE etc)
